A Dinosaur Ate My Homework

Joanne Vernon Illustrated by Roser Cussó

When his homework is snatched away by a dinosaur, a young boy dares to retrieve it!

Did you know that dinosaurs absolutely love to eat homework? It’s true! All that paper is made from trees, so it’s a tasty snack for plant eaters! But when a young boy’s maths assignment is suddenly snatched away, he decides to give chase — after all, he doesn’t want to disappoint his teacher. But dinosaurs can be very stubborn, and who knows, maybe there is another reason for wanting to take it… This is a hilarious and exciting story about facing up to challenges and the importance of empathy, featuring wildly expressive and entertaining illustrations.

  • A hilarious and entertaining story about seeking challenge and being brave.
  • A delightful and surprising story that features a unique twist on the phrase, “A dog ate my homework.”
  • Bright, bold illustrations that are full of character, perfectly complimenting the originality and charm of this story.
